2:45
Mike Stewart, Hey, good morning, Thanks for having me. We talked
2:47
about political stuff, talk about the storms and the quay. Out your thoughts
2:51
because the great number of your constituents were we're impacted by these storms on Tuesday.
2:54
What was the heart of the attack area, if you could say,
2:59
from Weatherston her standpoint. But I think the blessing is that no fatalities and
3:05
we can rebuild my district, though in particular Lincoln Logan Boone, southern Kanaga
3:10
County from if you look at that hole from Montgomery all the way to Saint
3:15
Albans that curve that horseshoe. We've been hit by so many things over so
3:21
many years. I represent some of the most amazing citizens in West Virginia.
3:25
They rebuild every time, and I think we're just blessed. The damage was
3:30
severe, but the fact that nobody was killed from these storms what a blessing.
3:36
And the prayers are answered. There will rebuild. But definitely I want
3:40
folks to reach out to me if there are things we can do at the
3:44
Senator of things I can do to try to rattle the cages. If you
3:46
need help, definitely reach out to me. But I think the blessing is
3:52
that that quick storm that came through here. That sound of the train that
3:57
people keep here, we talk about it all the time. Yeah, it's
3:59
frightful, and when you hear a train and there's no train track near you.
4:02
Yeah. All right, pretty scary stuff. But the blessing is nobody
4:06
we'll recover from this. Yeah. Indeed, let's talk about the session.
4:11
How was this pass session in your opinion? Well, I don't think it
4:15
measured to the level of pass sessions where we were cutting taxes by massive amounts
4:20
and making huge impact from a tort reform standpoint. But I think we made
4:26
progress. And I think we'll have a special session that will be called in
4:30
by the governor at some point to talk about special budget items. But in
4:34
terms of my two sessions, I definitely think the first was bigger, and
4:39
I think we had more pressing issues. I mean, it's not often you
4:42
get a historic tax cut that happened previously. But I think we're headed the
4:46
right direction. But it's election season and we saw a lot of people playing
4:51
politics in the under the Golden Dome. And I'm hopeful as we move forward,
4:59
we're going to focus on some big things, and we've got to focus
5:00
on tort reform again. We were on the judicial hellhole list for years and
5:04
years. People heard how bad our civil justice system was. Well, we
5:09
passed a lot of great laws making the civil justice system better. Where do
5:13
we appear today? We're forty fifth in the country. We're about to go
5:16
back on that list again if we don't focus on significant tort reforms to be
5:21
able to keep up with other states across the country. Mike, I know
5:25
you were one of the ones that wasn't happy about the governor's vito of the
5:27
emanization bill. Yeah, but it's one where I think this is the way
5:30
the game's played. I think it was such a small bill in terms of
5:34
its impact, maybe would have impacted four hundred students from across West Virginia.
5:41
And I think it was if you're better sitting at the table and you're looking
5:44
to the future and who's going to be comprising the seats in the legislature and
5:47
who's going to be the next governor, I thought it was a really smart
5:51
position to sign that into a law. Let it become the law of the
5:56
land. Let's study it for a few years, see what the impact will
5:59
be. But I think it's it's fair to say that others disagreed with that
6:02
strategy, But I think we're going to come back next year. I think
6:05
I've heard it from multiple Senators and delegates and even gubernatorial candidates. They're going
6:11
to go back and revisit this thing, and it may be a lot bigger
6:15
than what we had before us this year. And so I'm one of those
6:18
folks that think you have to look down the road, You've got to look
6:21
to the future and try to figure out how today's actions are going to impact
6:26
the future. You can win the battle and lose the war. And this
6:30
is something that I've talked about very clearly that those who wanted to stop any
6:34
sort of changes may have won the battle. They may have lost the war,
6:39
but they're forty five other states that have great flexibility religious freedom, some
6:44
even have philosophical freedom. That's fifteen states in the country. And so when
6:48
our kids are playing travel ball and traveling out of state, almost undoubtedly every
6:54
time they compete, they're competing against kids that are not to the degree vaccinated
6:59
that we are West Virginia. When those kids travel into West Virginia, the
7:01
same scenario. So I think we have forty five other states that have done
7:05
this. The sky is not falling, and I think some of the rhetoric
7:11
around this bill was much bigger than it needed to be. But we'll see
7:15
how it plays out in the future. But I think I'm going to be
7:16
right about this that ultimately at some point those folks who oppose this will come
7:20
back to me say, boy, I wish I could get that deal back
7:23
again. Yeah, because I mean, from what I'm being told Senator what
7:28
it is going to come back next year, and that's a non election year,
7:31
and it's going to have more teeth to it than what this one did.
7:34
That's kind of the speculation anyway, And that's why I thought the smart
7:39
move was to allow this to become law and take a look at the impact
7:42
since it was so small and not consequential from an impact to West Virginia standpoint.
7:49
But some other folks felt differently, And I respect that. I have
7:54
great relationships with folks who who were on the other side, and I have
7:58
a great relationship with the guy, So I respect that he signed a lot
8:01
of other bills that were terrific, and so I have great respect for the
8:07
job that's been done in West Virginia over the past eight twelve years now.
8:09
The Democrats held a press conference the other day, some of the House Democrats
8:13
did, and they said that, of course you alluded to a special session
8:18
and things that they would like to see covered on that special session. Do
8:22
you have anythings in your wish list that you'd like to see No, I
8:26
mean the special sessions a call by the governor. I think those things that
8:28
are a priority to the governor will be on that call. Those things that
8:31
aren't won't be. And so the Democrats can talk all they want about what
8:35
their priorities are. But the fact of the matter is, I think they
8:39
have about nine seats in the House of Delegates out of one hundred. They
8:43
have three seats in the state Senate. So I appreciate their input and their
8:50
perspective. But fact of the matter is the governor is going to, through
8:54
his decision making and his team, make a decision on what should be on
8:56
the special call, and I respect That's talk about your campaign for Attorney General.
9:01
How's that going. It's going great. It's an exhausting campaign. So
9:05
I came out of a few years ago running that seventh district State Senate race
9:09
in four counties Lincoln Logan Boo in southern Kanaha County, a big mass of
9:15
square miles. But when you're running a fifty five county campaign, I just
9:18
spent three days up in the Eastern Panhandle in Martinsburg, Charlestown, harpers Ferry,
9:24
Shepherdstown, going door to door doing meet and greets pretty phenomenal opportunity.
9:30
But what you also see as you travel across West Virginia is just how different
9:33
the economy is in certain places than it is here. The challenge that we
9:37
have in southern West Virginia are there opposite challenges up in the Eastern Panhandle.
9:43
Their challenges are infrastructure. We have some of those same challenges, but theirs
9:48
is just not enough roads. They've got farmland that's turning into commercial development and
9:54
so they've got zoning issues, and they've got population increase while we're losing population.
10:00
I think the great part of these campaigns is traveling across West Virginia,
10:05
understanding the differences that are before the people of West Virginia and being able to
10:11
understand those things as you stand for election before the people of West Virginia.
10:16
Why do you want to be the next Attorney General? Senator? So I
10:18
think it's less important than I want to be. I think it's important that
10:22
i'd be, and given the background I have being the former United States Attorney
10:26
somebody who understands how to work so well in the federal courts, understanding the
10:31
federal challenges that are before us, especially by this administration, when it comes
10:35
to coal mining, natural gas, when it comes to the Second Amendment,
10:39
when it comes to our education system, when it comes to those woke directives
10:45
that are being forced down our throats. I want to be the Attorney General
10:48
because I've always felt this neat gosh from the time I was a little boy
10:52
growing up in that holler and that little white house and that tenroof in that
10:56
holler in Barbara County. I've always felt as I've grown up, this need,
11:01
this desire to help protect the people of West Virginia. There's nobody better
11:05
situated, given the work that's been done at the Attorney General's Office, There's
11:09
nobody better situated in West Virginia than me to pick up the ball and start
11:13
running in the defense of the people of West Virginia. And that work I
11:16
did with corruption. Corruption is a significant problem across West Virginia. It's prosecuted
11:22
far too little. When I prosecuted those two members of the State Supreme Court,
11:28
it was the first time in the history of West Virginia that a prosecution
11:31
of Supreme Court justices had ever happened. But I'll bet you this. I'll
11:37
bet it's not the first time we'd had a corrupt Supreme Court justice prosecuting those
11:41
types of cases. They're taxing on a family, they're taxing on a career.
11:46
I still pay a price amongst the good old boys who like to protect
11:50
themselves in areas of corruption. Those folks worry about a guy like Stuart who's
11:56
less concerned with them, more concerned with prosecuting care I've said this, I'll
12:01
say it a million times. There's no such thing as a little bit of
12:03
public corruption. The people deserve transparency and to understand how their government's being run.
12:09
I believe that wholeheartedly. I grew up a young guy who believed the
12:13
Republicans or Democrats neither one really cared about people like me, and so I
12:20
was determined. And I think I've done this as I've led my career to
12:24
have a sense of urgency to fight for those folks in a little white house
12:28
with a white picket fence all across West Virginia that struggle every day to put
12:33
food on their table, educate their kids, put gas in their car,
12:35
and put a roof over their heads. I believe that wholeheartedly. It's what's
12:39
driven me from the time I was a young guy, and I love the
12:43
idea of just being able to serve, protect, defend, and fight for
12:48
the people of West Virginia. Before we let you go, I do want
12:50
to ask you this. It seems like when you have a right yet that
12:56
you have a race for governor like you do, and you have the four
12:58
leading candidates, they all participated in a forum last night that was aired locally
13:01
on television, and you've got the Senate race, and you've got all these
13:05
other races. Sometimes the other constitutional officeholders, you know, your Attorney General,
13:11
Secretary of State, auditor ag they kind of get left behind. Are
13:16
you worried that people of West Virginia, as you were out traveling, maybe
13:20
don't realize the importance of those of any of those offices. You know,
13:22
when the people of West Virginia watch the news, the issues they see are
13:26
the ones that will be impacted most by the Attorney General of the State of
13:30
West Virginia. I've said this, I mean it's sincerely the most important race
13:33
on the ballot is Attorney General for the state of West Virginia. It's the
13:37
only office that can walk into the federal courts and challenge the federal government to
13:41
be able to drill frack in mind the energy beneath our feet. It's the
13:46
only office that can roll into the federal courts and retake your Second Amendment rates.
13:50
That's why I've been endorsed by the West Virginia Coal Association citizens defensively,
13:54
the largest grassroots Second Amendment organization in West Virginia. That's why I've been indorsed
14:00
by the Family Policy Council, and on and on and on. The folks
14:05
out there who understand the stakes at hand, and they are massive, understand
14:09
why I need to be the next Attorney General. It's not a job or
14:13
a title that I covet. It's a job I desire to do to protect
14:16
the people of West Virginia. And my opponent, my Goodness, hasn't practiced
14:20
law for over eight years, is expected to go into the federal courts and
14:24
defend the people of West Virginia who voted four times against the Second Amendment.
14:30
My Goodness, he was the one who was traveling around West Virginia promising as
14:33
the state auditor to go in and make sure all those COVID dollars were spent
14:37
correctly. I've got articles right here from the Wheeling Intelligencer, from the Parkersburg
14:43
News that audit that was done in West Virginia that showed more than one point
14:48
two billion dollars misspent. It was my opponent who was traveling around West Virginia
14:54
on a tour with Joe Manchin saying, don't hire consultants. I will handle
14:58
it for you. It was my opponent that put together a COVID spending committee
15:03
to try to make sure the dollars were spent well. It wasn't spent well,
15:07
and we need to dig in and understand who's going to be the next
15:11
Attorney General at West Virginia. I've been there, done it. Took enough
15:15
Fennel off the streets that could have killed forty million people, prosecuted corruption at
15:20
the highest levels, prosecuted the largest medicaid fraud in the history of West Virginia,
15:24
the largest elder fraud case in the history of West Virginia. I've been
15:28
there, I've done it. I'm not gonna have to go to YouTube to
15:31
get a video to find out whether to sit on the left side or the
15:35
right side of the courtroom. I know how to build big teams. I
15:39
know how to get investigators around me. That's what West Virginia needs right now,
15:43
and we can't afford a novice to be the next attorney general. Mike
15:48
Stewart Canada for Attorney General and state Senator. I appreciate you being here.
15:52
Thanks a lot work. Can people learn more about your campaign at MAKEWV great
15:56
again dot com. And I point this out because listen, I'm going to
15:58
be out. I spent fifteen twenty to one. The good old boys are
16:03
betting on on my opponent. You know who's backing me. I'm getting two
16:07
dollars, five dollars, ten dollars, twenty dollars checks from people all across
16:11
West Virginia, some who rate it's the best I can do. It's all
16:15
I've got left after going to the grocery store. Go to my website,
16:18
help me fund my campaign, help me compete, and if I can get
16:22
my message out, we'll win this race. And I promise you, if
16:25
I don't do the job at the end of my first four year term,
16:27
I won't run for reelection. I give you my word on that. You
16:32
know a good way to get your message out is to buy radio ads.
16:34
I think I may have just done that. I'm just saying. Mike Stewart
16:38
is here. It's nine twenty four. Mike, I appreciate you being here.

20:19
Hey, good morning, good to be back on. Thanks to thanks
20:22
for coming on today. First of all, I want to start with this.
20:26
You know, obviously we had some wicked weather in West Virginia. You'd
20:27
start off the month of April, some areas of the state getting a lot
20:32
of snow believed or not, over the next twenty four hours. It's springtime
20:36
in West Virginia. Any comments from you about the storms and the damage done,
20:38
sir, absolutely, My thoughts and prayers to all those impacted by the
20:42
storms. Thank you to those first responders who are always there to get get
20:48
right to work and step up up our neighbors and friends. Obviously, be
20:52
super careful when you're navigating the roads in the surrounding areas. Caroll Miller's the
20:56
congressman there. I'm sure her office can help with any specific needs. Let's
21:00
speaking of Congress before we get to your candidacy for cent, I want to
21:03
talk about what's going on in Congress. Let's talk about let's talk about some
21:07
recent activities in Congress. Anything that's on your mind, Just go ahead.
21:11
Well, we had this spending bill was the main thing we did before we
21:15
left. We're clinging on to a very small two seat majority here keeps dwindling
21:22
as people leave, and so, but it is a Republican majority. We
21:26
do have a divided government, a Democrat president, Republican House of Representatives in
21:30
the Democrat US Senate, and so we're the one chamber that is trying to
21:33
push conservative values. But this bill passed with just about every Democrat voting for
21:38
it, and the Republicans were split. And spending in debt, like the
21:41
one thing we can all agree on is that we are overspending. We don't
21:45
have a balanced budget in the federal government. We spend more than we take
21:48
it every year, and the debt is growing like crazy. This is frankly
21:51
a national security threat. We now have more interest on the debt every year.
21:55
Just the interest payments on our thirty four trillion dollar debt is more than
21:59
we been to fund the military, the United States military. That is a
22:03
horrible situation. And so you know a lot of times I call in the
22:07
shows like this, and I'm constituous to say, you know, we can
22:08
help with some money here and some money there. Well, if we're paying,
22:11
you know, getting close to a trillion dollars a year on interest on
22:15
the debt. That's money that should be going to help Americans. It's been
22:18
totally responsible. So I was proud I did not vote for that spending bill.
22:22
I was only one the state not to vote for it. But in
22:23
this case, mostly Republican House members did not vote for it, and we
22:27
had to stop passing bills that spend too much. And we're going to go
22:30
back and we're going to be faced with other tough issues and US Conservatives need
22:33
to be united and ready to fight for this country. So that's that's kind
22:37
of where we are at the moment. Let's talk about your race for Senate.
22:41
According to the polls, and it's going to come down to you and
22:45
Governor Jim, just as it looks like in the primary, the poles still
22:48
show the governor, sir, with with a pretty big lead. Talk about
22:51
your efforts to try to overcome that deficit. Yeah, thank you. I
22:53
think polos are starting to pay attention. I heard the radio ads on your
22:57
show when I called in the time people begin to focus. Jim Justice is
23:03
a well known person. He's better known than I am at the moment.
23:04
But my polls and my interactions show people are in fact looking for an alternative.
23:10
And we're talking about Republicans here who vote in primaries. That's going to
23:14
determine this. Obviously, with Joe Manson retiring, this is very likely to
23:18
be a Republican seat. So the election on May fourteenth is it. And
23:22
I'm making the case, and I think I'm gaining every day and I'll continue
23:26
to gain between now and the primary. Making the case. How Jim Justice
23:30
is basically the same as Joe Manson. I mean, Jim Justice is Joe
23:33
Mansion two point zero. He was elected as a Democrat in twenty sixteen and
23:40
attempted the largest tax increase in the history of West Virginia. Part of it,
23:42
like, in my ten years in Congress, I've never once voted for
23:45
a tax increase. I have a proven voting record, never raising taxes,
23:49
voting to cut spending. That is what I believe conservatives want. With mister
23:53
Justice, it's spending and raising taxes like a Democrat. There's a clear difference
23:56
there. I was proud to have been endorsed this week by West Virginia Citizens
24:02
Defense League, the largest pro Secondmendment group in our state. They endorsed me
24:07
over Jim Justice because I'm the only candidate who has a firm voting record once
24:11
again of standing up and then fighting for our Second Amendment rights to keep in
24:15
bare arms. On issue after issue, mister Justice comes down on the liberal
24:19
side. In fact, he endorsed Joe Biden's American Rescue Act, which was
24:23
the very first one point nine trillion dollar COVID bailout plan, massive spending.
24:27
Not one Republican US senator voted for that. I did not vote for that
24:30
as a member of the House of Representatives. Jim Justice endorse it said we
24:34
needed the money. He would literally be the most liberal US Senator for a
24:37
Republican in the whole country. And West Virginia's deserve a conservative US senator.
24:41
So I'm making that case every day, and it's gaining traction. I think
24:45
you'll see the polls start to close, and that has a really good shot
24:48
I overtake him and win this thing. Congressman. Last week, the governor
24:52
vetoed the vaccination Bill which went through the legislature here, which would have loosened
24:56
at least some of the requirements for school age kids in West Virginia, primarily
25:00
charter schools and things of that nature. The Governor used a veto pen on
25:04
that you were very critical in some social media posts about the governor for doing
25:10
that. Why is that listening. I believe in your personal freedom to vaccinate
25:15
or not and take other medicines. We saw this go on the abuses of
25:22
the federal government during the COVID vaccine time. Joe Biden kicked you out of
25:25
the military if you wouldn't vaccinate. We had when Republicans took over, we
25:29
had a reinstate, patriotic Americans back into the military who didn't want a COVID
25:33
vaccine. And I just don't think it's the government's job to force upon American
25:37
people what their medical intake is. People have different medical needs. That is
25:41
a choice in any case. It's a religious issue as well. People have,
25:45
you know, religious concerns about over medicating. So yeah, I believe
25:48
in freedom. Obviously. Jim Justice first during COVID was shaming people in West
25:53
Virginia said you were like a bad American and you were a problem if you
25:56
wouldn't vaccinate for the COVID. Now to this bill, because I guess he
26:00
thinks the government he knows better than you do what your health care needs are.
26:04
That's ridiculous. You pick your doctor. I mean I'm going on in
26:07
healthcare a little bit more. I proudly voted to repeal Obamacare in twenty seventeen.
26:12
Trump was president, and we were ready to repeal Obamacare and try to
26:15
restore free market and freedom in the healthcare. Not a government runs system.
26:19
Not another step towards socialism, which is what Obamacare and governmental health care is.
26:25
A step toward socialism in this country. I believe in freedom, not
26:27
socialism. When I voted to repeal Obamacare and we passed that repeal in the
26:30
House, mister Justice attacked us, but it was a terrible idea to repeal
26:33
Obamacare. He supports Obamacare once again, he would be like John McCain,
26:37
who put his thumbs down and wouldn't repeal Obamacare. He'd be one of the
26:40
most liberal ones. So this is on. There's a very clear difference here.
26:44
And even though he's in a race against me, he was still arrogant
26:47
enough to veto a bill that passed overwhelming the legislature with good Republicans voting for
26:52
it, simply saying kids who don't even go to school, these are homeschool
26:55
students, these are virtual school students. And the private schools can make their
26:57
own policies. These are not these are virtual students. He still want to
27:02
force his vaccinations upon them. So but in many cases people can't vaccinate for
27:06
certain things. I ran into a lady over the holidays, a West Virginia
27:11
student who actually was a cancer survivor. Beautiful young lady had cancer young age,
27:15
but survived it. And because of her cancer, she couldn't get the
27:18
COVID vaccine it would conflict with her cancer treatments. They kicked her out of
27:21
nursing school for a year in West Virginia because she wouldn't vaccinate. So now
27:26
finally she got back, but she's behind a year. And I you know,
27:29
as a member of Congress, you know, as you mentioned, I
27:30
represented the northern half of the state in my tenth year as a Conservative Republican
27:34
in Congress, and I tour hospitals all the time. My daughter was born
27:38
at Women's and Children's Hospital right there in Charleston, and there's a nursing shortage
27:42
everywhere. I mean, we need more nurses, and we kicked this lady
27:45
out. So it's ridiculous. We need freedom in this country, not more
27:49
government mandates. Talking again with Congressman Alex Moody, who's a candidate for US
27:53
Senate. We are less than one month away, I guess now till early
27:56
voting begins in West Virginia. What's that month look like like for Alex Mooney?
28:02
You know, I am barnstorming everywhere, and I'll say I juxtaposed this.
28:04
I mean, I've got I'll be in Wayne County Saturday. I'm actually
28:10
calling you right now from the northern Panhandle. There's a Brook County Republican candidate
28:15
forum tonight that I'm attending. You know, there's fifty five counties in the
28:18
state and almost all of them are having candidate forums. So I'm barnstorming there.
28:22
If I can't make it, I have another family member, my wife
28:25
or staff covering, so it door knocking in between. I am out and
28:30
about every day meeting folks and it's going great. I mean, it's it's
28:33
rare. I find someone once they meet me and we actually have a conversation.
28:37
Hopefully people listening to the show, we'll see. Okay, I have
28:40
a clear choice. This guy's you know, Alex Moon's conservative. The other
28:42
guy is more of a liberal Republican, and make that choice. But I'm
28:47
I'm everywhere, and you know that's a that's the way it's going to be
28:51
until the May fourteenth. Where can people learn more about your campaign, Sir?
28:55
I mean as far as online or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
28:56
it's simply my last name Mooney and ey Moony four FRWV dot com,
29:03

29:08

29:15
the show. Good luck, we'll talk again soon. Thanks a lot,
29:18
Thank you very much. Yeah, thank you, Congressman Alex Mooney again,
29:21

29:36
talk to the mayor of Dunbar. Comeing up here momentarily, not only about
29:40
the storm clean up, I mean, believe it or not, it seems
29:41
like it's been a lifetime, but it's less than forty eight hours ago that
29:45
those storms rolled through West Virginia and specifically here in Kanawha County, and I
29:49
want to talk to Mary Elliott about that. Come it up here in just
29:52
a couple of moments. But I do have a ton of texts to get
29:55
to, so I am going to try to get those out now after I
29:57

30:10
the Mike Stewart interview, Tech says, so there are people who, after
30:12
buying groceries, are spending their last dollar on Mike Stewart get elected for attorney
30:18
General. What a load of crap, says the Texter. Going to Alex
30:22
Mooney, Tex says, why does Alex think West Virginia's for Life endorse Jim
30:26
Justice instead of Alex Mooney? Going back to Mike Stewart, Tex said,
30:30
would not vote for this guy at all? To be in favor of bringing
30:33
black eradicated diseases as totally stupid. Tex says, Mike Stewart is a typical
30:41
Republican who can't see beyond the present. These illnesses have been stopped by vaccines.
30:45
They will come back, whether it's three, five, ten years from
30:48
now. Relaxing vaccine mandates creates the environment for these illnesses to reappear. Don't
30:53
vote for Stuart, You and your children's safety is on the line. Tex
30:57
says, we have a corrupt Supreme Court justices in the state and the federal
31:02
government. I'd like to hear Stuart say Clarence Thomas is corrupt and needs replaced.
31:08
Texas Dave Mike Stewart sounds like he reads his campaign stick for the back
31:11
of a John Cougar Mellencamp album Little Houses Picket Fence, Except this isn't Mayberry,
31:17
according to a Texter, Texas Dave Mooney talks about the budget bill but
31:21
supports Trump, who ran up the deficit ten trillion dollars in the state of
31:26
West Virginia got nothing, rich got fifteen percent tax break. Biden is bringing
31:30
jobs to the state. Tex says Westernrginian voters to deserve West Virginia as a
31:37
senator, not a Marilynd Mooney, the carpetbacker. Again, He's another part
31:41
of the problem in the past decade, more talk than action. Tex says,
31:48
Obviously, the congressman is unable to comprehend the concept of vaccinations to protect
31:52
the public health, Let's bring back polio, says a texture. Texture says
31:59
Mike is either dumber disingenuous. The state auditor has authority over local governments like
32:04
counties and cities. The legislative auditor has authority over state agencies and their COVID
32:07
dollars. You think a lawyer, senator and legislature would know the difference.
32:12
So he's obviously lying to your listeners, says a Texture Texas day for Mooney,
32:19
Chuck Schumer, King Jeffreys, Press secretary of KJP, keep blaming the
32:22
House GOP for the border invasion bill because they won't pass Biden's immigration bill.
32:27
Would someone please get in front of the cameras and read to the public the
32:30
exact reason why we don't want that bill and it's not a border bill.
32:35
The GOP has got to be more aggressive publicly with fighting these Marxist policies.
32:42
Says a texture, and finally Dave says a textra Alex Mooney was too conservative
32:45
on the vaccine mandate. You need to use common sense with being conservative.
32:50
Also, is there going to be a debate with Jim Justice. I don't
32:52
know whether there'll be a debate or not. I will see if I can
32:57
find out. I do know, But on his way out the door this
33:00
morning that Senator Stewart told me that there is a debate schedule between he and
33:04
JB. Mccusky, who is one of the candidates running for state auditor.
33:08
And I think if I'm correct on this, and somebody can correct me if
33:12
I'm wrong, I do think that that debate is coming up Monday night at
33:16
West Virginia State. I think it's what Mike Stewart said. If that's not
33:19
the case, I will correct them. But I think that's coming up Monday

the Vietnam War in nineteen sixty eight and is from Weston. Congress needs to
37:35
better fund military operations to recover our missing veterans, and it starts with awareness
37:39
like this event. Appreciate that. Let me bring in now the mayor of
37:45
Dunbar, Scott Elliott, Mayor. Good morning, How are you morning,
37:46
sir? Just great, just great, considering right, everything that's gone on,
37:51
talk about I mentioned this earlier. It seems like it's been months or
37:53
years, but it was actually less than forty eight hours ago when these storms
37:58
rolled through the area at least tier in downtown Charleston where I was at that
38:01
time. Many, I mean, we knew wicked weather was coming, but
38:06
I don't know that anybody thought it was going to be that bad at your
38:08
town. City of Dunbar really really got hit hard, Yes, sir.
38:13
The first thing, we were getting ready for a meeting at eleven AM,
38:15
and the sirens went off. I looked out the window, saw the sheet
38:20
of rain going sideways, and the next thing I know is the police chief
38:24
is getting dispatched to sign on the ground with the car on top of a
38:30
car on Route twenty five blocking the entire road. Tractor trailer truck blew over
38:35
on the interstate, so coming into Dunbar through town on the interstate or Route
38:40
twenty five was blocked and we had a hard time with all the trees down
38:45
and everything else. And you said you were out yourself along with your crewis
38:47
but you were out there with them late Tuesday night, and really we're not
38:52
where we need to be yet. The cleanup is continued and will be for
38:54
some time. Right now I got home, I believe it was right around
38:59
ten o'clock that night. We had to have the guys quit working on the
39:02
sign trying to get it out of the road. It was just getting too
39:06
dark with no power in town till last night about nine o'clock, so we'd
39:10
stop and then they'd go back in at daylight. And they've been working from
39:14
daylight to dark. They should be done probably today and get wropped twenty five
39:17
both back open today. Hey, where are we now on the other clean
39:21
up? I mean, as I said, we're talking about weeks, months,
39:22
maybe longer. But where are we now. We've got all the main
39:28
roads clear, we have a little bit of inside of neighborhoods that we've got
39:32
to go clean up. Our chipper is running from daylight to dark and cutting
39:37
up the trees as fast as we can get them out of there. And
39:40
our residents need to understand that if it's on private property, they've got to
39:45
cut it up, but if they get it to the edge of the property,
39:46
we'll come in there and get it all as quick as we quickly as
39:50
we can. Very important point, Mayor, because you can't go on people's
39:53
private property. What if someone is in a position where maybe they're an elderly
39:58
person or or they can't cut it up themselves. Do you know of services
40:01
out there? I mean, I know, I'm sure they're businesses that will
40:02
coming to do it, But I mean you know of people that are willing
40:06
to come onto private property any you know, good old boy with a chainsaw
40:12
type. And we've had some residents come out and helped like that. Way.
40:16
A lady had her driveway blocked and one of the local residents went up
40:21
and cut it and brought it down to the bottom of the hill. I've
40:23
sent city crews out to get it as close, you know, as we
40:29
can legally, and then after hours, if the guys wanted to go,
40:32
some of them has went out with their own equipment and went out and helped
40:37
get some areas clear. That's what West Virginia does. Yes, and the
40:42
resiliency we can get back into it, and we're getting back now that we
40:45
have power. It'll be a whole lot better. Yeah. Absolutely. Mayor
40:49
Scott Elliot of Dunbar's here phone calls of the show our service of big Ley
40:52
Pickley Wiggly texting services provided by Fruit Pharmacy, your hometown Family Pharmacy. And
40:57
that iconic photo, And I mentioned to you off the air that that was
41:00
the lead story on Tuesday evening on one of the network newscasts, was that
41:05
photo from Dunbar where that giant billboard had had fallen and crushed the car there
41:10
near the tutors. Yeah, the owner had just got off of a smoke
41:15
break and had walked in the door because the storm was coming, and he
41:20
he said he turned around once the door got shut on the restaurant. He
41:22
looked and the sign was on top of his car. Okay, so it
41:27
was the it was the owner of the car. You're saying, yes,
41:30
the owner was an employee of Tutors. Or he was an employee of Tutors.
41:32
And like I said, it goes from the It missed the Tutor's sign,
41:37
big huge billboard and it missed the Tutor sign. But it was touching
41:42
the guardrail on Route twenty five on the other side, clear across the road.
41:45
So we've had from sixteenth Street to twelfth Street closed since eleven am on
41:52
Tuesday. Right, Well, the cleanup will continue for a while. And
41:58
again West Virginia is very resilient people, and hats off to those that with
42:02
your with your city and other cities in the area. But also, as
42:06
I said, the good old boys with the chainsaws are out there because we
42:08
couldn't do it without them as well. Right, let's talk about something a
42:13
little more pleasant this weekend. We're going to try to put this behind us,
42:16
because it's time for the Cretter dinner. Talking about the critter. How
42:19
many years this thing been going on, Man, it's going on at least
42:22
fifty years. I'm not quite sure, because of COVID, we lost a
42:24
few years there, but the former mayor, Mayor Leone started it over fifty
42:31
years ago and we've been carrying on the tradition since. Talk about what goes
42:37
on to credit dinner. I went to my first one a couple of years
42:38
ago, so it's something to behold. But talk about what goes on to
42:43
critter dinner. Well, tonight, as soon as we all get off work,
42:45
we'll be in there and we'll be cutting This is at the community at
42:50
Direct Center. Yeah, okay, they're at twenty seventh and wrote twenty five.
42:55
We'll be cutting up and starting to prep all the food tonight. We
43:00
have frog legs, we have a bunch of different sausages, venison sausage.
43:05
We're gonna have pork butt barbecue that I'm personally gonna be cooking this. I've
43:07
heard that you make some pretty mean pork pork but sir, I like to
43:14
say that I've almost got it to perfection. Not quite, but okay,
43:17
well, look, you know my producer Jeff and I if you need,
43:20
if you need this to come and help you know, to get you to
43:22
perfection, We're here for you. That sounds great to me, come on
43:25
down. We we're going to be busy though for the next three days.
43:30
We start serving at noon. It's five cans of food or a dont a
43:36
monetary donation. All the food goes to our local food banks so more people
43:39
can benefit off of it, and you get to sample a little bit of
43:44
everything. You mentioned the frog legs. What's some of the more exotic things
43:46
that we have. We have some alligator alligator Jeff, you on this alligator,
43:51
Okay, go ahead, And we're going to have venison sausage and some
43:58
of course the pork butt. Just so many different things I think that they
44:04
have. We're making meat balls out of a bunch of different antelope, some
44:08
bison, you know, and of course there's going to be green beans and
44:13
mash potatoes that as. Yeah, a little bit of everything. We were
44:17
going to do some turkey, but they're frozen and that we couldn't get them
44:22
thawed out in enough time. Somebody asked me, I was talking about this
44:24
with some one of my coworkers upstairs, and I think she was a little
44:28
bit kind of taken it back by the whole thing. This whole thing is
44:30
one hundred percent safe. You folks know, what you're doing. This is
44:34
not somebody that you know, hit a rabbit on the way in and said
44:37
well, let's cook it. I mean, you guys know what you're doing.
44:39
Back in the day, the everybody went out and hunted, and this
44:45
former mayor had turned around and you had to get rid of your meat by
44:49
the February twenty eighth. So the law has changed. The law also changed
44:52
that we cannot serve food that's been hunted or killed on the side of the
44:58
road. So we have to order everything and bring it in and pay for
45:01
it and then cook it up. And we're going to be, like I
45:05
said, for the next forty eight hours plus, cooking machines, cooking machines.
45:09
It starts at what time on Saturday, noon? At noon o'clock?
45:14
You said, on noon and i's at noon o'clock. What a combination we
45:16
are. So it starts at noon at the rec center in Dunbar. And
45:20
the admission price again just a monetary donation. Some cans of food. How
45:23
many cans again are five? Can't but that's not the that's not the maximum,
45:29
that's the minimum. So you can bring in like a box of food
45:30
because it all goes to your food banks there in the area. So it's
45:32
gonna be a good time. Mayor. Good luck with the cleanup and good
45:36
luck with everything this week. It's always your pleasure to having the show man.
45:37

50:05
catch the gubernatorial forum last night? Aired locally by Next to Our Television's wowk
50:13
Amanda Baron hosted it, and it was basically a series of interviews with the
50:19
four leading Republican candidates for governor Capital Warner, Miller, and Morrissey. Really
50:23
not a whole lot new covered here. Much of what they have said has
50:29
been has been on this show in the past and will continue. They'll continue
50:31
to say the same things out on the campaign trail. It's basically, you
50:36
know, continuing to work with Trump and you know, all the kind of
50:38
the same thing that they all see. But great job, I will say
50:43
by Mark Curtis and a Baron and folks over at thirteen on that forum.
50:47
And I kind of I thought it was going to be, I guess I'm
50:51
misunderstood. I thought it's going to be a little bit more of a forum,
50:53
like a debate, but it turned out not to be that at all.
50:57
It was just basically, and I'm not taking away from did a great
51:00
job, but it was just them just kind of telling their side and they
51:02
weren't in the same room or anything like that. But nonetheless great job by
51:06

51:24
you're not a true MAGA Republican. I want to clarify something as we
51:30
closed the show from yesterday's share, I may have mistakenly have kind of led
51:31
you believe that the whole postal facility thing out at South Ridge is closing.
51:36
The correct term they're using is downgrade. The Postal Service is downgrading the Charleston
51:40
Processing a distribution center to what will now be called a local processing center.
51:45
The complete story about it posted by Jared Lewis AWV metro News dot com.
51:49
The review of the facility first began in November. The Postal Service saw the
51:54
center at South RIDGS as a candidate to have operations moved out of state.
51:58
Tuesday, during the myths of all the storm stuff, which I still say
52:00
was not a coincidence. That's when the announcement came out that they are going
52:04
to make that switch so again. Go online, go to wv metro news
52:07
dot com. Rey Jared Lewis's story there, and we're just glad to be
52:10
back. Two of our four towers were knocked over during the storm. We're
52:15
still not back at one hundred percent yet, but we got the best engineering
52:16
crew in the world to make sure we're back to where we are now.
